A Church Family for your Cancer Journey
Cancer can feel lonely. It doesn't have to be. Three St. Louis churches in our African American church family are opening their doors to people facing cancer, and to the people who love them, with Bible study, prayer partners, and a place to belong.
MEET THE PROGRAM COORDINATORGinny Littleton
Program Coordinator, Cancer Companions
Ginny knows the road you're on. She's a cancer survivor, a prayer warrior, and a walking miracle, and she's here to help you find hope, prayer, and a church family to walk with you.
Before joining Cancer Companions, Ginny spent more than 17 years as a paraprofessional in special and regular education, helping children reach their full potential. She advocates and organizes for her neighborhood, and when she isn't helping others, you'll find her with her two children, at prayer group, or walking in the park.
